Whose life is it: a good son remembers agonizing when
his terminally ill mother asked him to help her die.

The experience of von Hoffman's mother represents the
psychological and legal complexities of those who chose to die with
medical help. Although she died 'naturally,' her wish made him
wonder about the work of Jack Kevorkian and the psychology that
motivates a will to live.
